[share text="NATIVE AMERICAN NAVAJO FOLK ART BEAR BY MARVIN JIM"]Description
Navajo artist Marvin Jim made this exquisite bear out of wood. Marvin Jim is one of the most innovative Navajo folk art carvers.

After marrying Grace Begay, who came from a family of family of weavers, wood carvers and basket makers, he was encouraged to start carving again by her. Signed
